Coltishall's V-shaped apron would certainly explain why the lines in the concrete aren't parallel to the hangar in the background.
Okay, thank you!
What about #77?

RAFG,
77 could well be Coltishall also. Tha is a Victor B1 next to the Canberra and V-Bombers and RAFG Canberra's were regulars at Coltishall Battle of Britain at Home days. The hangar is also right for Coltishall.

, I'm forced to conclude that it probably is indeed Coltishall (again).Thread Starter

kind regards Steffi
Scramble has BoB display reports for Coltishall for 1959-61 and 1964, none of which list that Canberra nor any Victor in the static display. As per my previous post, I think 1962-63 are too late for that colour scheme, so most likely September 1958 - a few months after 16 Sqn had re-formed with the B(I)8.
